Abstract
‘This paper aims at analyzing the work of a school principal and discussing the roles
undertaken by hin her as well sat highlighting his/her contribution to school efectiveness.
‘The work of an administrator has attracted the interest of a considerable number of
researchers since World War Il and among the relative studies the analysis olfered by Henry
Mintzberg stands out. He identifies ten roles in an administrator's work, which he groups in
three domains. With reference to this classifcstion, a school principal functions a) as
symbolic head ofthe schoo! (figurehead). as leader ofthe school personnel and as ison with
those outside the school: b) as monitor and information collector. as information
dlisseminator and as spokesperson to the outsiders; and c) as innovator and reformer
(enterpreneur), as disturbance handler, as resource allocator and as negotiator, The research
‘on schoo! effectiveness originated in the United States and has come as a reaction to the
dispute, in the 1960's, of schools contribution in combating social inequality in the USA.
From the relative studies the crucial role of the school principal has been hihlightedand some
basic features of the effective school principal have been identified. Among those are
‘neluded: i) the development and promotion of a common vision forthe school and of a sense
‘of common mission forthe school staff ithe focus of his/her interest and efforts on teaching,
nd educating pupils {i} the recognition of the importance and the emphasis on the impact
‘that the human factor has on the educational process iv) the ensuring of the practical
conditions for supporting teaching and learning and v) the continuous effort for change and
‘improvement of the school. In conclusion it is pointed out that it is necessary in Greece the
‘essential aspects of a principal's work to be highlighted and connected with the core of the
school’s mission learning and educating, In his respect, the organization of taining courses
for school principals can prove very fruitful
